Miyagi sighed happy. She had been afraid that Honoka would be sad because she dropped, but the girl's natural cheerfullness made Miyagi happy as well. "Honoka-chan... Good job." She whispered, before breathing deeply, waiting for the next spot to be announced. Honoka counted on her.

"Placing third, with 6 094 946 votes, 151st generation and Team K, Masuda Akari!"

One spot closer, Miyagi thought.

Akari rose, trying to compose herself and smile. She had wanted to win again, and while she hadn't aimed for a high spot last year, she still had ranked high. Thus, she had expected that her fans would be able to push her to the first place again. Akari bowed to the audience, thanking for the placement. She sightly cried while shortly looking to the other ranking members, before looking to the stand-by places, noticing Miyagi and Takamina. Within a few seconds, she changed her mind.

"Somehow, I am still happy. I know Takamina and Miyaya well, and I love working with them. I think that both of them would be great centers for 00's next single, and I'll do my best to support them. In the end, I've seen the scenery of the first place once, and the others should see that as well. It was selfish of myself to think that I should claim the place again; 00 has so many great members that should have time to shine there as well. Besides, I am sure that we three work great as top three." She wiped a tear away and smiled towards the audience and the bright, warm spotlights. The first faked smile turned into a true smile.
